“It was absolutely an honour for me to present Vice President Joe Biden tonight,” Luis Fonsi said on Twitter.
“For many years, a fantastic leader who has shown his regard and appreciation for the Latino community and PR.
“It is past time for us to have a president who treats us with the respect we are due!”

“It’s a good match for Slow Joe,” she added.
Is Joe Biden the front-runner in the polls?
According to CNN, a series of polls show Donald Trump “had strengthened his standing with Hispanic voters over the last four years.”
However, Biden is trailing Hillary Clinton by 28 percentage points among Hispanic voters, according to the broadcaster, who “lead by 37 percentage points in an average of final pre-election polls.”
According to the BBC, Biden is dominating national presidential surveys as of September 15.
Biden had 51% of the vote, compared to Trump’s 43%.
However, the national polls are “not always a good approach to predict the result of the election” on November 3, according to the BBC.
On the Campaign’s result Biden is leading Trump
According to an article in The Conversation, Biden is currently “leading Trump in the majority of opinion polls.”
However, according to the research-based website, “poll-based election projections have proven problematic in the past.”
“Surveys were extensively chastised following the 2016 election because Trump won despite the majority of polls predicting he would lose.”
“Biden is the 10/11 (53 per cent) favourite and has a 7% lead in the market over Trump, who is 6/5 (46 per cent) to win,” according to Betfair Exchange.
